    Brown Adipose Tissue - role in fibro

    I was just reading a published paper regarding BAT (aka: brown fat) and the correlation of temperature and fibromyalgia. Interesting to read if you are interested in the science (I frequently have to look up the medical terms to get the point). This article talks about possible referred pain...

    Here we go again

    I am sitting at my computer getting ready to compose yet another letter to my attorney as to what my conditions are, what my doctors are saying about them and how I feel they prevent me from working.

That collar got lost in a move, and I was subsequently re-injured, so my pain is even worse now. These days I do a lot of stretches, as well...
